The Kidnapped Bride

Chapter 349 - Lipstick Mark?

Chapter 349 - Lipstick Mark?

Years passed when they both were married. Time doesn't wait for anyone, so it was in their case when they started to spend much more time despite the hustle of their business.

Initially, it was a lot of hectic to describe but later on, they settled on time.

Love grew and it never stopped, as a son was born to them after three years of their marriage. For Alice, this was the second gift that was gifted to her by God, while for Shawn, it was a piece of their love…the love he holds for his dear wife.

After some time, it was the time when Javier showed up in their life. A second child made their life a bit hectic where Alice and Shawn had to devote their time to their children, to their business as well as to their dear married life.

Just like any other morning, Alice was sitting on the dining table when she gave the bag to Charles who was eating his breakfast along with Javier. "Charles, you have to finish your lunch no matter what. Alright?"

Charles vigorously nodded his head, "Okay mama!" On the other hand, she kept the second lunchbox in the other bag when she looked at her other son, "Javier, you too. I don't want you to leave your lunch box filled. Alright?"

Javier, who was eating his bread, lifted his eyes to make a sour face, "Muma…I don't want to eat." his puppy eyes never made Alice less strict to say, "No, you have to eat and finish this...." making a pout, he ended up nodding his head.

At the same time, Shawn descended the stairs when he made his way to his family near his wife, "Alice…why are you doing the work anymore.."

Hearing the sweet voice, she turned around to look at her husband to give him a shake, "These two children of yours are bent on? making my head burst.."

A chuckle left out of his? lips when he came to stand by her side to put his hand around her shoulders, "I don't know anything about these two but my dear daughter inside you will surely not be happy with you doing so much work."

"Father, why are you always on our sister's side?" Javier asked bluntly when he looked at his father showing so much love for the child who was still in their mother's stomach.

She was already eight and half months pregnant when they were on the edge of having the child out in a few more weeks, but his father was someone who already predicted that the child must be a girl…

Alice turned around to look at him from the corner of her eyes when she brought her lips near his ears to whisper, "Trust me, this is last. No more children please.."

"Sure my dear!" Shawn boosted when Alice smiled but then, her eyes traced to see his shirt that was covered by his coat.

Her lips turf grim but no words came out of her throat. But was she hallucinating?

'This lipstick mark?' she is sure she didn't plant that. But where did it come from? There were no words for her when she ended up maintaining some distance from her husband. "Y-You must be getting let…Go now…"

Seeing her getting a bit alarmed, Shawn didn't answer much. Neither did he try to explain anything. Passing his children a sweet smile, while giving a peek at his wife's cheeks. "I will see you at night." she subconsciously nodded her head while passing him a fake smile.

Her hand traveled to her back, holding it tenderly where she took a deep breath to not let her emotions be affected. 'But why is my heart beating so loud?' she knew this isn't good for their child..yet it made her feel hollow.

Her eyes then went back to see her husband leaving where she felt her eyes swallowing up. 'Are you cheating Shawn? I hope no…because it will change many things between us..'

….

With Javier and Charles going to their school, Alice stayed at home throughout her third trimester instead of going somewhere else, not even to her company to handle things.

She was staring at her phone thoroughly when an unknown number landed on her phone. "Hello?"

"Mrs. Johnson?" she heard a girly voice, on the other hand, making her brows? twist, "Who are you?"

"I need to give you certain information. Why don't you go to your husband's office without prior notice and check things once?" the other side hung up as soon as possible.

Staring at her phone, she felt some unknown feelings crossing her heart when she got up and decided to show up at her husband's company.

Within the next thirty minutes, she was already at the reception when she walked inside and came her husband's secretary who greeted her, "Good morning, Mrs. Johnson."

"Good Morning. I was here to meet Shawn. Is he in any meeting?" she asked sweetly while keeping a smile on her lips, "Well..I don't know ma'am. Sir changed his secretary long ago and she's the one who is handling things like these related to him now."

CHANGED his secretary? Why did she never hear about it? Her palms started to get sweat but whatever, her expressions weren't affected either, "Oh..may you please take me to his cabin?"

"Sure, ma'am. Please come..carefully.." he added when he saw her baby bump when she nodded her head and followed him through the elevator when he brought her to nowhere else but on the third floor where Shawn's cabin was.

But then, they stood on the entrance itself when Alice held the secretary's wrist, asking him to not make any noise when she heard the voices from inside.

"But Shawn….this child..I don't want it to be nameless….it will be your illegitimate one.."

"Don't worry, this child will also be mine. You will also have the name of Johnson, trust me."
